SonoDiagnostic

Vascular Care WA has our own in-house integrated and noninvasive vascular ultrasound service provided by a highly experienced specialist vascular sonographer, Mr Simon Prout from Sono Diagnostic. 

This service is provided at Dr Stanley's consulting rooms at the Mount Hospital. Having our own dedicated service allows us to maintain the highest quality imaging technology, resulting in accurate diagnosis, planning and management of the patient's vascular condition. Our patients have access to a convenient, comprehensive and accurate specialist vascular diagnosis and reporting system for the management of their venous and arterial vascular conditions to ensure the best health outcomes.

Special Interests

Dr Brendan Stanley has interests in all areas of vascular surgery and is extensively involved in developing interventional techniques for carotid stenting, peripheral vascular disease and endoluminal stenting of thoracic and abdominal aortic aneurysms. He was the first surgeon in Australia to perform a branched stent repair of an aneurysm in the arch of the aorta whilst maintaining the blood flow to the carotid arteries supplying the brain and he continues to have the most extensive experience in this area within Australia.

Dr Stanley has a special interest in and has helped develop the technique of fenestrated endoluminal repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms and complicated thoracic abdominal aneurysms. He continues to teach this advanced technique to other vascular surgeons and is regularly asked by colleagues to consult on the suitability of this technique for their patients throughout Australia and Asia. Brendan also provides advance treatment of varicose veins, ulcers and hyperhydrosis.

Dr Stanley is committed to maintaining a strong involvement in the teaching of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery to medical students, registrars, Vascular trainees and other Vascular surgeons.
